So i had a tempered glass desk, for like 4 years it has been fine. About 2 hours ago it fucking exploded while i was using my computer like i do every day. Rest in peace all of my equipment.
Don't fall for glass desk meme, pic related.
:(
all cleaned up now though so thats nice :)
You should stick to all natural remedies.

Nice try senpai. My sperglord room mate broke my wii u tablet the other day cause his friend beat him in mario party. You faggots deserve to burn, works for me tho cause he had to buy a whole new console to replace it. topkek.
>>55184522
but i was just watching the news....
>>55184494
Did anything actually break? One of my monitor arms broke last year, panel dropped a good 3 1/2 ft and still works fine. As for the desktop, unless the GPU broke out of the PCI-E slot you should be fine?
I was going to make a shitpost, but when I opened your original post image I couldn't help but feel bad too
I'm sorry this happened OP, we all know what its like to have shit break on us. Does your pc and other shit still work fine though?
tempered glass does this. Its full of potential energy
All it takes is a tiny imperfection to make the whole tabletop dangerously unstable, and a bump in the right spot, or uneven heating from a sunny window or say a cold drink, and the whole thing can explode. usually it happens when nobody is around to even witness it
>computer on top of desk
You deserved this, TBQH.
>>55184494
You see anon this is why you make your own desk. Wood is cheap and it can be customized exactly how you want it.
>>55184557
>>55184552
Haven't checked on the PC itself yet, i need to go to sleep soon because work in the morning...Just finished cleaning up. I'm hoping most of the hardware will be ok though. There was definitely glass shards inside when i picked it up so im kinda concerned about that, ill have blow it out.

100% getting a hard wooden desk next. I'm super done with meme desks.
>>55184494
How long have you had your sub beat down on that glass?
Oh god don't scare me like this. I'm currently using a glass desk, I worry too much about this.
>>55184494
>tempered glass desk
Resonant frequency, glass doesn't bend as well as other materials.
>>55184690
Get your tower, as well as any heat producing equipment off the glass you fucking sperg. Did any of you even graduate high school?
>>55184690
Don't let you're are waifu die in a tragic tabling accident.
Replace it NOW!
>>55184680
Speakers have actually been unplugged, but on the desk, for about a year, so it wasn't the sub.
>>55184494
Your mechanical harddrives are for sure fucked, but the monitor might be fine still if it didn't land face down. And the other components of that PC are probably still good.
>>55184708
>thinks it's heat
It's resonance.
>>55184557
>we all know what its like to have shit break on us.
Speak for yourself, dipshit. Some of us are content to not wallow in ignorance.
>>55184595
Glass is non conductive and as long as it isn't up in any fans you're alright.

>>55184728
>Thinks fluctuations in temperature doesn't affect glass
Resonance can, hot then cold are far more likely a suspect as they're the #1 killer of glass desks. Fucktard probably never heard of a coaster either.
>>55184690
do yourself a favor and get a sheet of plywood, cut it down to exactly the dimensions of the glass top, and put the wood under the glass.
I absolutely would not trust tempered glass with all that stuff. are both of those tables glass? Its not a matter of being heavy, its simply a question of quality of glass. even top quality tempered glass can explode unexpectedly if it has sustained even a tiny amount of damaged
budget tempered glass likely already has the damage internalized in the form of manufacturing defects that are just waiting for the glass to take stress the wrong way and BOOM goes the tabletop
Front panel bit on the case is gonna need some duct tape. The part that connects it to the rest of the case is broken in half. :(((
>glass
why do people do this?
it's only acceptable if you're a faggot that just uses a laptop
>>55184690
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
>all that unnecessary heavy shit on your desk
>1/2 a cm thin tempered glass
You sure are a fuckin' idiot! Your desk has to be a MINIMUM of 2 inches thick to support all that weight dumbass.
>>55184494
>Not getting a nerf case
>>55184768
I guess I could see it if it was a glass with ice and his computer were venting downward. Even then, though, it's a bit of a stretch.
>>55184690

>>55184714
I do not have enough money to justify buying a new desk right now. I only have to put up with it for another few months.
>>55184776
Most things are placed overtop of supports, only concerned about the server.
I never understood why people would want a desk/table made out of glass.
After seeing that they spontaneously explode I'm even more confused.
>>55184796
>Note he has Beyerdynamic DT 880s
>Likely has a fairly powerful headphone amp sitting on desk
>Those things get hot.
Constantly putting your icy cold beverage on the glass that has been heating up for hours on end, sooner or later, is going to end very poorly. Get a piece of tempered glass, this is almost sure to happen if you repeat the process over 100 days or so as it causes tiny, near impossible spider web cracking in the glass.
I had a glass topped coffee table that exploded one day while I was firing up a dab on top of it. blowtorch was at least 8 inches from the table but I guess I should have been less of a deadbeat and considered the consequences
>>55184690
that is a beautiful setup.
>>55184768
All the air was venting in from below, and the front, out the rear. You can see my coaster next to the mouse pad in pic 1, the white thing with a red stripe.
I think the desk must have just had a small imperfection somewhere like people have been saying.
>>55184832

It's not weight but instability in the glass guys. Don't matter how fat his gear was. It was defective glass.
>>55184776
you obviously dont understand the physical properties of glass.
its not a matter of thickness or weight. all the explosive energy is already in the glass, holding itself together. thin glass can hold an amazing amount of weight, its just far too rigid to allow for vibrations to propagate or uneven heating
>>55184690

Kinda. But I guess that it has to go through a process that isn't natural right? Wood comes straight from nature.
>>55185037
Maybe that's just the aesthetic.
>>55185037
Yes it's the juxtaposition of the raw metal against the warm wood.
>>55185045

>>55184494
I've been hitting mine out of rage at times. Had it for 3 years so far but definitely hope that doesn't happen to me. Fucking wish I wasn't broke. Been wanting to make a desk for a while.
>>55185015
I happen to really like the hardware. looks like you could get some standard pipe clamps and mount some sweet hardware directly to the legs of your desk. If it were me I'd have a mic on a boom arm, rack clamped to your table leg.

Whyyyyyyyyyyyy!
Just look at it! Will ya? I can't even sleep thinking about that desk wherever you are and that its about to break.
>>55185015
Yes it is. It would depend on the wood you use and how much detail you want in it. Around $200 for a desk that will last your entire lifetime.
>>55185045
i for one think you will own that desk for many years to come and it will never fail you
you should still be fucking terrified though, that shit looks like a major problem waiting to happen
>>55184690
holy shit that it going to be an absolute clusterfuck when that desk goes
And I do mean when.
Any thoughts on having a desk made of concrete? Or some sort of polished stone?
>>55185086
You must be retarded to think shaping wood changes it from wood to something else.
>>55184825
Your reply shows how fucking stupid you are. Until you can replace the desk, FUCKING REMOVE MOST OF THAT SHIT.
I mean are you that stupid? Take most of that off the desk for now. The old system, take it off, the server rack, take it off...all the crap you have piled on those desks, take it off for now. Box/bin it up. Put your case on a fucking box/piece of wood under the desk for now.
I mean really. Are you this fucking stupid? I mean looking at that pile of crap you sit in kinda says so, but do you realize it?
>>55185127
you wont want to be under it when it collapses if it wasn't built right
>>55185112
Lol ya right. The 2" galvanized steel pipe and kee clamps holding it together are
~$350 and the wood unfinished is a 2.5'x5' piece of white maple that will run you $300 plus the cost of stain and polyurethane.
Maybe if you made it out of plywood and cardboard you could build one for $200
>>55185127
It would be heavy as fuck and would not be good placed just anywhere in a house. Like a counter top? That would be fine I guess but would not look very good.
>>55185127
Too heavy to be practical.

That is not entirely self made anon. You get the wood and cut it and bond it together yourself like the pic shows not buy it already done. Holy shit you really overpaid.
>>55185170

I have a quartzite countertop designed like pic related, that is used as a computer desk and I gotta say its really cold. like super cold all the time. if you're gaming you can rest your arms in the same spot for two hours straight and your arms will go numb and the stone will be as cold as it was when you started
it also thaws things out at an alarming rate. if you put a glass of ice water on it the ice will melt in a few minutes. so i guess in that way it might seem warm.
it really just has a very high specific heat and its very dense. not comfortable for extended use because of how cold it makes you. I know its a weird gripe but its a pretty serious flaw in the whole idea
>>55185230

They would be like what, maybe $60? Maple like that would fetch around depending on the look of the grain somewhere around $40, you just have to cut it and glue it together. Poly and stain would be $20. He got jewed good.
>>55185145

i'd say 70$ for the amount of pipe (2x 2"x10' galvanized pipe. you could go to 1.5" to make it even cheaper). Clamps and caps would probably run you about 30-40$.
Wood varies wildly but I would say max 100$ for that piece of wood. Varnish/stain/poly is another 30$ or so max.
He got got good. Real good. I guess it's true: a fool and his money is soon parted.
To all the people suggesting building your own desk: Yes, it's a great option and can get you a superior finished product for a reasonable price. Comparing it to building a computer is just flawed though. Building a computer doesn't require much more than a flat surface to lay the case on and a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Building a desk is a much more significant undertaking in terms of space and tools required, and not everyone has that. I certainly don't have room to do it in my condo.

You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form.

A regular pane of glass with a chip in the edge doesn't mean shit, tempered glass is another story.

Why don't they make laminated glass desks?
>>55185759
>>55185831
STOP
I have LITERALLY that exact desk.
It's got sticks sitting on it holding up like 3 iMac G4's.
They heavy.
>>55185215
This. Get your money's worth out of that desk, anon.
>>55187507
>21 lbs
>heavy
I had 4 emacs before (they were $10 each so i couldnt refuse) and they are 50lbs.
Made my 20 year old wood dining table creak a bit.
>>55187574
I got one fucking emac because it was free and it's not like I could turn down the fucking thing but god they're so heavy, like fuck me.
I hate it to death.

>>55187905

Boo fucking hoo. Instead of posting that your shit broke, why not actually do something about it and not clutter up this board anymore than it already is.

OKAY THATS WAY TOO MUCH HEAVY SHIT FOR A GLASS DESK MOVE NOW
>>55185045
OKAY YOU FUCKING IDIOT YOU WILL REGRET THIS
What if you were jacking off under a glass desk and the desk shattered and you got all the glass shards stabbed into your dick and balls.
>>55188527
Yup. Want the power for Oculus Rift when I get it, and I have a few old monitors I can add to the set-up for multi-monitor.

now that's a non-garbage LCD
>>55188616
well actually you've picked the same GPU, CPU, motherboard and RAM
>>55188616
Oh shit you going Raid 0? Also, get the i7. Don't be a pussy.

Different motherboard, Z170-A vs Z170-PRO. It has a thicker PCB and better components all around. Also handles OC a lot better.
Different ram, from a more reputable company. I have to concede though, same CPU.
>>55188731
It's actually cheaper to buy 2 500GB SSD in the UK compared to one 1TB one. No idea why. Even if you don't raid 0, you save money.
I avoided i7 for anon since it seems to be purely a gaming rig. Personally I only use i7's because I render video regularly.
>bought a glass desk a couple of months ago
>remember that our old oven's glass front fucking exploded the same way OP's did some years ago
It's going to happen to me, isn't it?
I should have bought that fucking wood from home depot and attached it to the fucking wall
>>55188814
*YOU DIED*
>>55185317
I'll agree he overpaid for the scaffolding stuff.
You can't 9x 5 feet of 2x4s of white maple for 40$ though. For hard wood that thick you're going to pay. These guys charge 6 fucking bucks a feet for 2x4 of maple.

I bought two $40, 600lb rated tables from Amazon just to combat shit like this.
I figured if I can lay in the middle of them and jerk off, it's stout enough to take my monitor, tower and a case of beer.
Uh guys, my PC case has tempered glass on two side panels and the components inside heat cycle up and down from 20-80 degrees all day long. Should I be wearing safety glasses?
Tempered glass doesn't explode (normally)
Just make sure that the glass you buy was good tempered. You need to check mark in the corner.
We build door on glass here and they never explode.

Btw- 3mm temperate glass can hold all weight on top of it
>>55188925
unless it's like -20c outside and you decide to carry your PC while still running outside while it's that cold, the extreme temp change could probably cause it to shatter.
Barring that you're fine.
>>55185317
>Maple like that would fetch around depending on the look of the grain somewhere around $40, you just have to cut it and glue it together.
you need to plane it after that
